Anyone on here using any Zymol products?
Tips, reviews,info???
Especially on white cars! :wink:
Thanks in advance, craig :happy2:
-
I used Zymol Carbon in the past it was a very good wax but i found it too soft so i ended up applying way to much product, No matter what i tried i just couldnt get it to go on thinnly :smiley:
-
Zymol Glasur would recomend it on any colour :happy2:
-
Ive just started using the shampoo for washing the car. Smells really nice and seems to do a good job too and the bottle should last fecking aaaaaaaaaaages from the concentration level needed as well. Its just a shampoo too, doesnt leave any waxy stuff behind like the AG one does, so no beading afterwards, it'll need a sealant or wax etc using after.
-
Ye the shampoo is good.
I have used most of their waxes which are their best products. I find the high end waxes, vintage and royale very greasy. They are good waxes but are a bitch to work with
-
I use Zymol HD Cleanse then Zymol Titanium wax, leaves a really good and long lasting shine, find myself not having to wax the car as much as i did with other waxes! The tub has lasted me a while still got over half left. I also use the shampoo find it good also.
Would definately reccommend the products!
-
I had a detail done with Zymol products when i first bought my car and i would rate it very highly. the wax lasted ages and i got very little tar and other marks that you can only get rid of using clay. My car is practically black at the back end, just now with marks that wont wash off, but i never got this with Zymol wax. :chicken:

Was a cracking wax though :happy2:

Step 2 was the cleanse. Not got any pics from this stage, was being attacked by midges! :sick:
This stuff smeels good and certainly brought a lot of clarity to the surface, very smooth finish, bit hard work at times but worth the effort.
The final stage is the wax.I have Titanium, a wax designed for cars that get used every day. I have used this previously and found it very good and pretty long lasting. Fingers crossed this time! :signLOL:
Bit of effort involved at this stage, some was applied by hand some with applicator. Some strange looks from neighbours whilst doing it by hand! :laugh:
